Reasons To be Cheerful #2

So I need a bit of joy today, need to remember whats going good in our little lives because lots is and I do not take much note of it. I love to look at lives positives focusing on the rubbish gets you nowhere so here is this weeks reasons to be happy.

1 - My husband has had lots of work, this has been good that he is busy. He is very talented at what he does so its great seeing some of the jobs he is working on. He recently has been making a short film that will be showed at our church I can not wait to see it finished, being his wife I often have to watch it alot to see the changes. Me and the kids are all in it as Extras so will share it when its done.

2 - Although today I had a shocking parents evening they said he was very bright, also that he was top in Maths and Reading. I feel like I finally got somewhere with the school and hope they continue to communicate with me to help Asti at school.

3- I have a week of Annual leave coming up soon where we are of to spring Harvest. Will be nice to get away with the husband and kids. We are both volunteering but it should be fun all the same. We can go swimming, go to the fun fare and all the fun things you can do at mine head.

The post night shift tea and bed shot, been up for 26 hours now and I couldn't be bothered to take a decent pic I just NEED sleep!

4 - Life is not feeling as crazy at the moment, I have felt like I was in the fast lane lately. This week especially has been a bit slower in pace, and with the warmer weather we have had for like two days it has made me happy. I also worked my first nightshift in a long time and managed to stay awake.

This little sausage dog is 16 months today! He is such a joy 💜

5 - I am slowly trying to do more in the days with the toddlers, they both love crafts and I am slowly getting more daring. I may never be a proper craft/ sensory play mum but I am trying. I find it a bit stressful but they love it.



So this is my few reasons to be cheerful, there is so many more but this is enough for now.

Reasons to be Cheerful - April - part 1

So I write this we are currently serving on team working with youth at an event called Spring harvest. Its alot of fun we are blessed to be part of it, part of peoples lives its great. I love writing about the small things that make us happy, sometimes counting the small things can make you so grateful for the big things, so here is what I am cheerful about this month so far.

1 - We survived my husband being away, 3 kids on my own and two of them under two has been ok. We got in a routine and the house was surprisingly tidy, my husband would have been proud! I actually really enjoyed spending time with the kids but I have missed my husband so so much. I realise how much he does and how grateful I am of what he does!

2- We on Holiday!! hurray even if me and my husband are serving on team we are grateful to be away! the kids having a great time and we can go swimming and make many family memories. We leave on Monday and my husband finally returns good Friday this year is flying by.

3- Having a little bit more sleep!! Little bear some nights has slept for a good 7 hours which has been so lovely. After a few weeks of sleeping for 1-2 hours at night and sleeping worse than when he was born he has started sleeping longer again. My mood has improved alot and I feel kind of normal again!
